I have talked to a few people that Have the kaaz 1.5 way lsd and they say that It holds high torque loads well when you go to the strip but it clicks a lot and doesn't work as well as the stock one if you try to take it through a sharp corner. apparently the best one is the stock diff for street, strip and circuit but I don't think it will take the new motor's power though.does anyone know of any other options? or any possibly helpfull articles?

You can always go with a TII unit. It can hold higher torque loads (not as good as a kaaz, but close) and retain some street driveability, as well as save a few bones...

Ive always had a kaaz, and have never had a problem. My current one "thumps" bad in slow turns, but its been shimed to be tighter. I run my car on curvy roads all the time and have never had a problem, but since ive never ran a stock one, couldnt say if it is better or not.

I heard from chris at rotary performance and he mentioned something to about switching around the clutches in the diff.



the new setup is a ported 20b with a t88h I have been told to expect 600whp we will see though when its all done eier way i don't think that the stock diff is going to handle a single turbo 13b much less a single turbo 20b motor

I have the Kaaz and make 350whp. On the road corse I LOVE it. On the street you do get some clutch chatter. It is easy to avoid/drive around with a little practice. The breaking in can have a large factor as to how much chatter you get...it is very critical. I have the same unit for my 20b and expect it to take the power. Again, the break in is the key.
